      abstract     = {A survey of photosynthetic pigments, including 86 species
                      from 64 families, was conducted for leaves of neotropical
                      vascular plants to study sun-shade patterns in carotenoid
                      biosynthesis and occurrence of alpha-carotene (alpha-Car)
                      and lutein epoxide (Lx). Under low light, leaves invested
                      less in structural components and more in light harvesting,
                      as manifested by low leaf dry mass per area (LMA) and
                      enhanced mass-based accumulation of chlorophyll (Chl) and
                      carotenoids, especially lutein and neoxanthin. Under high
                      irradiance, LMA was greater and beta-carotene (beta-Car) and
                      violaxanthin-cycle pool increased on a leaf area or Chl
                      basis. The majority of plants contained alpha-Car in leaves,
                      but the alpha- to beta-Car ratio was always low in the sun,
                      suggesting preference for beta-Car in strong light. Shade
                      and sun leaves had similar beta,epsilon-carotenoid contents
                      per unit Chl, whereas sun leaves had more
                      beta,beta-carotenoids than shade leaves. Accumulation of Lx
                      in leaves was found to be widely distributed among taxa: >5
                      mmol mol Chl(-1) in $20\%$ of all species examined and >10
                      mmol mol Chl(-1) in $10\%$ of woody species. In Virola
                      elongata (Benth.) Warb, having substantial Lx in both leaf
                      types, the Lx cycle was operating on a daily basis although
                      Lx restoration in the dark was delayed compared with
                      violaxanthin restoration.},
